What do you see?

I was recently watching a TED talk the topic. " how we don’t come in with the majority of our emotions, but they are programmed, for the most part, to us by our environment.

She used the picture up above and asked, “what do you see“? If you look at it, you may see different images, but what was so striking was once she added color.

Thought it was such a great example of what Maren is always trying to explain to us and just wanted to share with the group.😉

I wish there was more room to do before and after to give you the space to ponder, but you’ll get the idea.

Here is the text from today's fireside. Thank you for joining :-)

Consciousness in Every Corner of the Third Dimension

Introduction: Not an Inhabited Universe — An Observing One - Written Based on Maren Muter's Theories.

We live under a paradigm that has misunderstood what it means to “be alive,” to “possess consciousness,” or to be “aware.” Western thought, heavily influenced by materialist reductionism, suggests that consciousness arises from complexity — that something must become complicated enough to deserve awareness. But that is not only flawed — it is inverted.

Consciousness is not emergent. It is primary. It is the field from which all things arise.

Maren ,

I thought today’s Fireside chat was mind-blindingly challenging! 🤔

Quantum physics, quantum mechanics, quantum entanglement etc. these are languages in and of themselves, which you speak so brilliantly!

I am definitely 15 years out of practice and, noticeably, frustratingly even finding the words to ask a question coherently and intelligently today was beyond a challenge and, perhaps, rightly so.

To speak and put into words that which cannot be languaged only experience… I have always found it best to take it to the poets.

I heard this whispered in my ear afterwards to help soothe me...perhaps it will do the same for some of those that gathered for your brilliant talk.
